The Porsche 911 Targa is a design icon — a blend of open-air freedom with timeless lines and performance heritage. But even the most legendary paintwork isn’t immune to time, wear, and the brutal Dallas sun. When this client brought their weather-worn Targa to DFW Clear Bra Dallas, they weren’t just looking for a shine boost. They needed a full restoration and long-term protection — without compromising the originality of their car.
That’s where Icon Rocklear came in.
Before: Dull, Swirled, and Sun-Faded
This Targa’s factory paint had seen years of daily driving and sun exposure. The once-deep finish was clouded with oxidation, fine scratches, and swirl marks that no detailing could fully resolve. But a repaint would be costly — and would compromise the originality of the vehicle.
Instead, the client chose Icon Rocklear, a next-generation coating system that doesn’t just protect paint — it revives it.
Why Icon Rocklear? Performance That Outshines the Competition
Icon Rocklear is more than just a ceramic coating. It chemically bonds with your Porsche’s clear coat to restore depth, boost gloss, and create a layer of protection that’s 75x stronger and 25x thicker than traditional coatings.
At just one-third the cost of paint protection film (PPF), Icon Rocklear delivers the following:
- Cutting-edge protection against chips, scratches, and swirl marks
- UV and heat resistance designed for the harsh Dallas climate
- Self-cleaning hydrophobic properties — less washing, more shine
- Correctable and re-applicable finish — easily renewed if needed
- Enhanced clear coat that preserves factory paint integrity
It’s not a film, but it adds a durable, flexible layer to the clear coat — perfect for keeping your Porsche pristine while retaining original aesthetics.
The DFW Clear Bra Difference: Restoration, Not Just Protection
At DFW Clear Bra Dallas, we started with a multi-stage paint correction to remove surface-level defects and oxidation. From there, our certified team applied Icon Rocklear under controlled conditions, ensuring proper bonding, uniform finish, and crystal-clear gloss.
Our process included:
- Full decontamination and surface prep
- Machine polishing to eliminate swirls and imperfections
- Icon Rocklear application using advanced layering technique
- Final inspection and curing for a high-gloss, defect-free result
The transformation was instant — and long-lasting. This wasn’t just a cosmetic boost. This was a full restoration of the Targa’s finish without touching the original paint.

After: A Porsche That Looks Showroom-New
The results speak for themselves. The Targa’s finish now reflects light with depth and brilliance. The once-dull panels now look freshly resprayed, only better protected. The client drove away with peace of mind knowing their Porsche is now resistant to:
- Rock chips
- Swirl marks
- UV fading
- Water spots
- Future wear
With Icon Rocklear, the Targa is now protected for years — and the coating can be corrected and reapplied if ever needed. No more scratches. No more swirl marks. No repaint required.

Icon Rocklear vs PPF: A Smarter Option for Paint Restoration
While paint protection film offers great impact resistance, it often comes with limitations in gloss and long-term flexibility. Icon Rocklear provides a powerful alternative for Targa owners who want:
- A more seamless look without the edges or texture of film
- Enhanced clarity and gloss
- Restorative capabilities, not just protection
- A lower price point, without sacrificing performance
